SLASHED WITH A RAZOR.
A Striker Gets the Worst of Fight
at New York.
The Legislative InYestfgation--A
Tie Up at Boston.

New YORK. Feb. To-day fight
took place OH the pier of the Morgan line
of steamers between a number of Italians
and striking 'longshoremen. After the
police had separated the colnbatants John
O'Neill, a 'longshoreman. was found lying
on the pier weltering in his blood
and near him lay an open
razor. O'Neill had broad slash
down his back. He was removed
to the hospital in an unconscious condition.
The boss stevedores to-day held a meeting
and took measures to fill the places of the
strikers tomorrow. The Brooklyn coal
dealers and their clerks have been deliver
ing coal to-day guarded by police. The
doctors at the Long Island college hospital
to-day carted in personally twelve tons of
coal to that institution. The strikers

in Brooklyn to-day, bnt were chased away
by the police, The strikers themselves have
no coal, and because of their idleness they
are earning no money to buy coal.
The assembly committee to investi-
gate the causes Of the strike met
again to-day. Frederick A. Potts,
president of the New York, SusQuehanna

was difficult to estimate the cost
OF transportation. He then outlined
the plan of the coal pool, said that the COM
panies forming 1t did not abide by its terms,
and that in July last coal was at the lowest
price in the history of the trade. He be-
lieyed in arbitration if the decision of the
arbitrators could be enforced. Austin Cor
bin, president and receiver of the Reading
railroad, testified that his company

and produces from 5000, 900 to 1000, 900
tons of coal annually. The collieries are over
100 miles from tide water. Large expenses
are involved in returning empty coal cars
to the mines from tide water. This is not
included in the accounts Of,the companies.

whose stock is owned by the Reading
road, mines and sells Its own
coal, paying for its transportation like any
any other company. Last year that COM
pany lost $1,2s6, 900. The only profit in
the collieries was to the railroad companies
for transportation. 1t exactly balances the
loss to the coal and iron company. The
workingmen made several million dollars
more out of the coal business
last year than the coal company
did. Mr.. Corbin stated that two weeks
ago he was summoned to Harrisburg by the
governor of Pennsylvania. He was in
formed that his company had violated the
laws of that state in combining to raise the
price of coal. and must desist. At the same
time the receivers of the railroad company
were threatened with ousting if they did
not make better showing.
